Blok Design — TIFF Annual Report 2017 — Toronto, Canada

The 2017 annual report is a love letter to cinema and an ode to one of the world’s most renowned and respected cinematic organizations. To capture the core of what makes TIFF so unique, BLOK paired bold verbs with unexpected concepts, such as “Catalyze collectivity”, “Inspire time” and “Shift dreams/reality”. This poetic tribute inspired the rest of the design, which eschews conventional format and embraces the beauty and language of film to create a cinematic experience that amplifies TIFF’s mission to transform how we see the world through film.

Blok is an award-winning design studio that works across media and disciplines, collaborating with leading thinkers and creators, companies and brands from around the world, taking on projects that “blend cultural awareness, art and humanity to advance society and business alike”.
